I hate Avery but I almost found it refreshing to see someone with the same expression on their face as I had.
A 100 times this.

If you watch the full clip, Bennett starts striding at Coleman from at least 35-40 feet away and with ill intentions.

People talk about predatory hits, this was a blatant as it gets. If Coleman had ducked his head a bit Im afraid of what we would be talking about today.

Remarkable that he didnt get tossed from the game regardless of when(in the game) it occurred.
